The current research study sought to examine, within a universal screening paradigm, the predictive validity of two computer adaptive tests, the STAR Early Literacy (SEL) and Reading (SR) assessments. The focus was to establish whether these tools could accurately discriminate At-Risk from No-Risk groups using known performance on future measures of reading achievement. Results of several diagnostic efficiency analyses found that the STAR Early Literacy (SEL) assessment, when used as a universal screening tool in kindergarten and first grade, produced specificity values consistently above the widely accepted 80% threshold. However, similar to other prediction studies sensitivity values were mixed. Similar findings were reported when examining the predictive validity of the STAR Reading (SR) assessment. An added component to this study sought to compare performance over time between At-Risk and No-Risk groups established during the Fall of kindergarten. Results of several ANOVA's and unpaired t-tests revealed that the At-Risk group did not make enough gains over time to match the performance of their No-Risk peers. Although both the STAR Early Literacy (SEL) and STAR Reading (SR) assessments show promise as universal screening tools, more research is needed to substantiate their use within a universal screening paradigm.
